The Black Ship by Barry Clifford

In April 1717 a small pirate flotilla loses its last furious battle with the elements. Bellamy, English-sailor-turned-pirate-adventurer, the Whydah - The Black Ship - and the loot onboard are swallowed by the shifting sands off Cape Cod, Massachusetts. Underwater explorer Barry Clifford has for nearly two decades led a full-time search for the enigmatic wreck and its treasure. Until now, the main body of the pirate ship has always eluded him, but today he has uncovered his beloved wreckage. THE BLACK SHIP is a book of adventure, history and underwater archaeology, a story that is dramatic, romantic and mystical, and a tale of two men separated by almost three centuries yet united by a common obsession.
Barry Clifford grew up in Cape Cod. Today Clifford is one of the world s top underwater explorers.
